Spicy Sushi Roll Recipes

Steps:

• Mix mayonnaise, chile sauce, togarashi, wasabi, chili powder, and paprika together in a bowl; fold in imitation crabmeat until evenly coated.
• Spread rice in an even layer across each nori sheet. Spoon a layer of crabmeat mixture in a row along the top edge of each nori sheet. Roll nori sheet around the crabmeat mixture filling, starting on the filling side until completely wrapped. Cut each roll into 8 equal pieces.

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix all ingredients together.
• Use for sushi, and everything else you can think of. Adding a touch of agave syrup or honey will make this into a whole other sauce, which is good too! Enjoy.

Steps:

• Place the sheet of seaweed on your working space.
• Take the sushi rice and place on top of the sheet, working it's way down to cover the whole sheet. (NOTE: it is easier to work with sushi rice if your hands are wet).
• Mix all the rest of your ingredients together, along with the Spicy Sauce.
• Flip your seaweed sheet with the sushi rice on it sushi rice down.
• Place the tuna mixed with the other ingredients in the center of the seaweed.
• Roll the seaweed sheet up and around the tuna and then take a bamboo sheet and make sure the roll is compacted and shaped.
• Cut the roll into 4, 6 or 8 pieces.
• Serve with the ginger, wasabi and soy sauce if desired.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Sumeshi: Rinse the rice thoroughly to drain some of the gluten from the rice.
• Cook the rice, using equal parts rice and water. I use a rice cooker, but you can also cook it on the stove if you don't have a rice cooker.
• Put the rice vinegar and sugar in a small pot over medium heat.
• Stir until the sugar has melted into the rice vinegar.
• Once the rice is finished cooking, take the rice out of the pot and put it in the hangiri (japanese wooden bowl), or a large bowl if you don't have a hangiri.
• Cool the rice and rice vinegar mix, then slowly pour the rice vinegar mix over the rice, using a cutting motion to mix it into the rice with the rice paddle (or wooden spoon). Keep a little leftover to use in the sushi preparation.
• To Prepare the sushi: Drain your tuna and mix all of the tuna salad ingredients together.
• Now take one piece of nori and place it on your sushi roller (recommended for getting tight rolls but in a fix you could use a stiff towel). Wet your fingers with the cooled rice vinegar mixture and press a fairly thin sheet of rice onto the bottom 3/4 of the sheet, leaving room at the top of your roll to seal it.
• Using a spoon, place a generous line of tuna a little lower than the half way point on your rice square. Then add a line of your lettuce leaves on top of the tuna.
• Begin rolling from the bottom, tucking firmly with each roll to tighten it. Be careful not to smoosh it though, it's a delicate balance but you'll get the hang of it after awhile.
• Once you've gotten to the blank top of your roll take a little of the rice vinegar mixture and apply it to the inside, roll it up and use a little more on the closed roll if it's not fully sealed.
• Using a sharp, wet knife cut into bite sized pieces. You can serve this with the traditional wasabi-soy sauce mixture but it's so flavorful it's not necessary.

Steps:

• Cook tofu how desired, steaming, boiling and frying are all acceptable. I like to cut mine into very, very small squares and swirl around a hot dry pan.
• When golden, remove from heat and mash with the mayo and chili oil.
• If you have a sushi rolling mat lay it on the table, otherwise lay a clean tea towel down and cover it with cling film.
• lay a sheet of nori on top shiny side down, if it is untoasted you may wish to briefly pass it through a flame. And place a layer of sushi rice on top. For thin sushi layer about 1/8 inch thick and for fat rolls layer about 1/4 - 1/2 think. Leaving a gap of around 1 inch at each side.
• Place a line of the tofu mix 1 inch from the edge of the rice. lay the spring onion on top.
• Starting at the edge roll up like a swiss roll keep the rolling a tight as possible using the sushi mat/towel to aid the process. When you reach the end moisten the remaining edge with water and stick down. Roll up in the towel and allow to sit while you make the rest.
• Using a wet, sharp knife slice into 1/2 inch thick slices. Remove the ends and eat. Place the rest on a platter and serve.
